[Samba] Smaba and WINS

[skent at gasd.org]

Hello all,

I am trying to configure a SAMBA server to be a pplace where teachers can
share files over network neighborhood; the other thing that the SAMBA
server will do is be a time server for when users log in.  I cannot get
the SAMBA server to accept its WINS name, and I can only talk to it via IP
address.  Below is the contents of /etc/samba/smb.conf

Thanks for your help.

# WINS Server - Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS Client

both

# DNS Proxy - tells Samba whether or not to try to resolve NetBIOS names
# via DNS nslookups. The built-in default for versions 1.9.17 is yes,
# this has been changed in version 1.9.18 to no.
